Has Cool Binz filed any state trademark registrations?

According to the 2025 Cool Binz Franchise Disclosure Document, Cool Binz has not filed any state trademark registrations. The FDD specifies that while Cool Binz intends to register new trademarks for promotional activities, no state trademark registrations have been filed to date. Instead, Cool Binz has registered trademarks with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

Cool Binz's affiliate, COOL BINZ North America, LLC, owns the trademarks and licenses Cool Binz the right to use them. The franchise agreement grants franchisees the right to operate under the COOL BINZ name and logo, as well as other trademarks used in the system's operation. Several trademarks, including "COOL-BINZ", "Park. Pack. Plug!", and "As easy as Park. Pack. Plug!", are registered with the USPTO on the Principal Register.

Prospective franchisees should be aware that they must notify Cool Binz immediately of any trademark infringement or challenges to their use of the marks. Cool Binz will indemnify franchisees against losses or expenses if they comply with the franchise agreement and notify Cool Binz of any claims or proceedings. However, if franchisees use the marks inconsistently with the franchise agreement, they will bear the cost of the defense. Franchisees are also required to assist Cool Binz in protecting its trademark interests, including becoming a nominal party in legal actions, for which Cool Binz will reimburse out-of-pocket costs unless the litigation results from the franchisee's inconsistent use of the marks.

Cool Binz retains the right to modify or discontinue the use of any mark, and franchisees must comply with these changes within ten days of notice. Cool Binz is not liable for any expenses, losses, or damages resulting from such changes, and franchisees are prohibited from taking legal action against Cool Binz for these issues. Cool Binz states that it is not aware of any superior prior rights or infringing uses that could materially affect a franchisee's use of the principal mark in any state.
